  • Never been fortunate enough to see a kingfisher, but yesterday morning saw a barn owl :D

    We have a pheasant that is a frequent visitor to our garden.

    We had a Little Owl on the garden fence last year (I think) but it was ringed. We get the odd woodpecker, and frequently have early morning visits from jays in the spring/summer, they like fat balls so I keep those topped up.l
